I don’t think I can ever buy tomato that are not San Marzano for sauce again.

Well worth the extra cost and the pasta blows away anything like Barilla.

I was able to bring hours of flavor in about 90 minutes.

Started with a mirepoix then added the can of Cento.

    Simple and good quality ingredients do that for you! Well done

  2. I love Cento especially that particular can. But Cento is a bit of a dilemma. Because they don’t have the DOP labels. So it’s debatable if they are San Marzano or not. But regardless, I love to use them.

    I’m wondering if cento is playing the game of getting san Marzano tomato plants grown somewhere in Southern Europe packaged in Italy… quality and taste used to be much better

    I bought this brand once at our local Italian store because I had seen it online and what I got was ridiculously sour, just inedible. Had to toss it.

    Awesome! Now time the boiling of your pasta better. It’s so dry now, it’s trying to sell itself on Amazon as a dehumidifier.

    did you just use the can or did you add any sauce?

    I love the Cento Eggplant Capponata. I get them by the case off of Amazon.

    Fr, San Marzano tomatoes make a huge difference. Cento is a solid brand too – that 90-minute sauce probably slaps.
